does SOR include margin of victory or is is SOS?  I can't remember.

Does not.  It is W-L against SOS.  Basically a measure of pure resume, no eye-test.

Way too much aggie-like "we have good losses" in here.     We have 3 losses.   I don't care who they are to.    If we get in by a hair, great, i'll take our chances and hope.   But if we get left out we have no one else to blame but ourselves.    

This. If you have three losses, you can't complain if you get left out. Though teams with no good wins (i.e. the big 12) can't complain either.

Outside of seeing exactly where they slotted us, I'm most interested to see what they do with Utah this week after giving up 470 rushing yards to Kansas State at home.  I mentioned the first rankings set that I thought they put them too high which could cause an issue down the road given that they had to keep the Tech/BYU winner ahead of them and that is playing out.  This is an opportunity to move them back if they want after a shitty performance in a home W.  Of course, the problem with moving them back is it gets Miami closer and reinforces their Miami/ND problem.

I think in theory they could put us at 13 with GT and USC losing and H2H v Vandy and Miami is ACC(SOS not good) but I expect us to be 15.  with a win against aggy  11 is probably as high as we get and get the Bama consolation prize, "top 12 but sorry G5".

If we end up 11/12 and get left out for G5/ACC, so be it. Our own fault but a Citrus Bow invite and 10 wins would be a good consolation after the struggles

The only path opens up if the Big 10 is a three team league, the ACC is one, and the Big 12 is one. If that doesn’t happen, Friday’s result won’t matter.  And then you probably need some chaos above us anyway.

If we win, we would have 3 wins against the top 12 teams. No one else could say that they played 5 of the top 12. That has to mean something.

If Vandy loses to TN they’ll likely tumble quite a bit because people will realize their best win is a shitty, 4 loss Mizzou.

I believe it will simply because the resumes of the others just wouldn't be nearly as good. 

Speaking of resumes - Ohio State really doesn't have any good wins other than that first game against us and a decent Washington team.

If they lose to Michigan they'll still be in but might get a much lower seed than people think.

We kind of exposed them (before the 4th quarter nonsense.)

There are 7 scenarios for who can make the Big 10 championship. There's even a dumb one where Michigan and Ohio State both make it. I'm sure Ohio State wouldn't mind sitting home again. It worked out last year for them.
